Plunkett's a good answer. I wonder how he would have done in Pittsburgh. I also wonder if he would come out today, given the dollars that they make now versus back in the early 70s.

Clarett never had a shot at the top selection. I don't even know if he would have been in the top five.

also don't forget given that he was a minority QB which was rare at the time, and he wanted to stay in school to set an example. i think that was the sole reason he wanted to stay

When was the last time a college player with eligibility remaining was considered a lock for the number one overall pick, and did not come out?

Note I said lock.

I can't remember it happening, but I wouldn't be surprised if it has. Anyone know?

Bradford just signed for 6 years and 78 million. You literally would have to be insane to pass on that for another year of college.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      I meant write off in the entire class being absolute garbage and that being on Dan  FA was pretty solid but Dan and Brandt handing out one big terrible contract to Turk Wharton. Milton was their top target and the pivot from Milton to Turk while paying Turk what they did was insane.  Id LOVE to know had we not paid Turk what type of contract he would’ve received. 3/30 mayyyybe? This is someone Brandt obviously vouched for.  I’ve watched a few of Tilis’ interviews now. One with Jourdan and one with Yates. He’s a big Moneyball fan. Giving Turk the deal they gave him is the complete opposite of the whole Moneyball idea. They paid a dude who they saw some potential in money that you’d pay someone that has actually made an impact  The worst part is that he’s 100% here next year too. That contract keeps him here until 2027 for sure

      Are you kidding? They just now figured out they could use someone else for a qb sneak.

      The biggest problem is that his upward trend is still well below NFL average. At some point there's just too much evidence to ignore. I've been there for awhile now. Honestly, it only took a handful of games for me to realize that he just had too many physical limitations to overcome to ever be a legitimate starter. I get that the organization couldn't afford to pull the plug that quick after that investment but there's absolutely no way we should've gone into year three without legitimate competition on the roster. We always a year behind kn this Bryce thing. This year should've been the legit competition year and this offseason should've been the moving on point. Hopefully we'll play catch up but I expect the trend to cj tinge and next year will be the vet competition year.
